PARTNERS connected through experience FASTENER POLAND is an event our country has never seen before: the very first international fastener trade fair to be held in Central and Eastern Europe!

We have invited a number of companies that specialize in e.g. industrial fixtures and connectors for wood, metal and composites. These are extremely popular products that are commonly used in the automotive sector, as well as in the furniture, interior design, and construction industries. The trade show brings together both large businesses and small companies who deal with connecting elements; our wish now is to connect them all at a single important industry event. Apart from the opportunity to forge new business contacts, win contracts and exchange experiences, participants will be able to attend seminars led by the greatest experts in the sector, to expand their knowledge and learn about technological novelties and innovations. The FASTENER POLAND trade fair will be held alongside the EUROTOOL®/ BLACH-TECH EXPO trade fairs and the largest industrial subcontracting in Poland. We are convinced that the rich formula and the organization of three parallel trade shows under a single roof will bring even more benefits to our Exhibitors and Guests.

Approximately 1300 companies, with a total sales revenue of more than 5 billion PLN, are currently active in the Polish fastener market. Until now, the industry has been very scattered and lacked a venue for its representatives to share know-how and forge new business contacts. This situation has now been radically changed. Thanks to cooperation with ”Targi w Krakowie”, we have provided the sector with an important arena for the exchange of experiences and ideas. The choice of venue was not accidental. Targi w Krakowie is an experienced industrial trade fair organizer and the mastermind of expanding the formula of the EUROTOOL®/BLACH-TECH EXPO trade fairs to include the new element. The Polish fastener market finally boasts a venue where its representatives can hold regular meetings, on a par with other European countries. This was particularly called for as the Polish market ranks fifth in Europe in terms of production size; it clearly needed an industry event with international reach, a venue where exporters would be able to meet their buyers and potential clients from foreign markets, such as Germany, Slovakia, Russia, Hungary, Ukraine and the Czech Republic.

FASTENERPOLAND

A perfect VENUE FASTENER POLAND is the first trade fair of this kind to be held in Central and Eastern Europe.

The large interest among representatives of the fastener industry leads us to believe that this will become a regular event. Its main asset is the venue: magical Krakow, a city in the very heart of the country’s most industrialized region, couched between Lower and Upper Silesia and the ‘Aviation Valley’ of the south-eastern Podkarpacie region and with its many other attractions, continues to rank as the top European outsourcing location. The great position of Krakow is the outcome of many years of active pro-investment policy and high standards of economic promotion. The capital of the Małopolska region also heads worldwide rankings of top business and tourist destinations, boasting its unparalleled Market Square and scores of lovely restaurants that will provide some leisure after a hard day at the trade fair.

Three days of industry events and knowledge sharing The FASTENER POLAND fair will be accompanied by very interesting seminars, workshops and conferences organized by the ELAMED publishing house, editor of “Fastener”, the only Polish magazine targeted at the fastener market. Their scope will cover themes such as innovations in wood and metal connectors as well as tool demonstrations.

Synergy as a recipe for success The same time and venue will also take place the 22nd EUROTOOL® International Trade Fair of Machine Tools, Tools, Devices and Equipment for Material Processing, the 9th BLACH-TECH-EXPO International Sheet Metal Working, Joining and Coating Trade Fair, and the Exhibition of Industrial Subcontracting, Automation and Robotics and CAx Technology. These events have brought together thousands of Polish and international experts specializing in metal and plastic processing every year.This time, they will also be your guests, alongside the invited owners, managers and technicians of companies in the construction, interior design, wood joinery, automotive and electrical machine industries.
